Aisha Buhari, first lady, on
Thursday threw her weight behind some aggrieved members of the All Progressives
Congress (APC) who opposed Senate President Ahmad Lawan’s appointments.
The senate president had appointed Festus Adedayo, a
columnist, as his spokesman, and also retained some aides of Bukola Saraki, his
predecessor.
But some members of the APC
kicked, saying especially Adedayo had been too critical of the ruling party and
President Muhammadu Buhari.
On Thursday morning, a group
known as APC stakeholders, had accused the senate president of rewarding
enemies of Buhari’s government.
Ayo Oyalowo, a social media
influencer who tweets @Ayorub, was among those members of the group who spoke
against Lawan’s appointment at a press conference in Abuja.
In a move suggesting that she is
in support of the position of the group, Aisha tweeted a quote of Oyalowo at
the press conference.
“You cannot drive an agenda with
people who don’t believe in that agenda…how will you achieve your purpose If
you bring in people who fought against your agenda. – @Ayourb. #APCYouths #MissionandVision
#BelieveinBuharisIdeology,” she tweeted.

Oyalowo had earlier told
journalists: “It is not about appointments as it were, it is about the fact
that there is an agenda called – initially the change agenda now the next level
agenda.”
